Baileys Women’s Prize for Fiction shortlist party

The Serpentine Sackler Gallery was buzzing with a heap of funny,
clever and creative women at last night's Baileys Women's Prize for
Fiction shortlist party.
Rachel Johnson, Jo
Malone,
Camilla Rutherford and Perdita
Weeks were among those raising more Baileys Chocolat Luxe
cocktails than you could shake a book at. Between the sipping and
literary chit-chat, Donna Tartt's The Goldfinch, Hannah
Kent's Burial Rites and Audrey Magee's The
Undertaking were announced as some of the shortlisted authors.
Cheering and clapping followed suit, before it was back to the
terribly important business of, er, yet more drinking.
